July 21 2001

Added "Page Jumping" ability to gallery pages. Please note that pages are kind of like moving targets, since I count from the beginning back, the newest images are always on page one, so the first image added is on a higher and higher page number as images are added.

Added "New Additions" section to home page.

Added 15 models.

Added "lighting" category to TipCenter.

Worked a bit on admin. Now the only fields you have to keep full in your profile is your name, email, username and password. If you leave any of them blank, that section will not show up on your profile (you can always add it back later though ;).

June 16 2001

Added new poll.

Added 12 new models.

Added "Add Links", "Edit Links" and "Delete Links" to admin section.

Made "Edit Image Comments" self-correcting. You'll notice that after a while in the gallery, all of the images that were added before the database was in place had no author information. The problem was simply that I did have enough time to add a name to over 650 images. Now, if you go into edit image comments and hit submit, even without making changes, it will add a name to the image in the gallery.
